The Three Pillars of Longevity

What really determines how long—and how well—we live? It comes down to three key factors:

1️⃣Our Environment & Infrastructure
Where we live matters. Green spaces, walkability, healthcare access—all these external factors shape our lifespan. It’s no surprise that places like Singapore, with its balance of urban planning and nature, see people thriving well beyond 100.

2️⃣Our Daily Choices
Movement, nutrition, sleep, and mental stimulation—what we do every day shapes our future. Staying mobile, engaged, and intentional about our health is one of the greatest investments we can make.

3️⃣Luck & Social Connections
We don’t like to talk about it, but luck plays a role. Genetics, unexpected events—things we can’t control. But one of the biggest controllable factors? Our relationships. Strong social ties have been proven to extend life and enhance well-being.

Longevity isn’t just about one thing—it’s the interplay of where we live, how we live, and who we live it with.

Which of these factors do you focus on the most?
